THE VERDICT
The ultrasound tech is 95% sure it's a... GIRL!
So there still is a chance that in 3 weeks or so they could see a wiener.
But she felt pretty positive.
THE FEELINGS
I thought I would be more excited.
But a little piece of me mourns for the boy.
I know that sounds insane.
But I had myself convinced it was a boy.
I liked my ideas for the nursery.
And I was accepting life with a boy.
Thinking about my friends with boys.
And how they could grow up together.
Clearly making all these decision way too soon.
But I was preparing.
And honestly I wanted a girl more than a boy.
So I was trying to gear myself up for a boy.
I think, however, both Joe & I would be great with a girl.
Joe will be an AMAZING dad either way.
And you should see him with our friend's girls.
They all run to him and beg him to play games, and teach them things.
He will be sitting alone at a gathering one minute and
Then all these little girls will be jumping on him
And than he'll have them on a nature hunt gathering butterflies
Or playing a soft ball or something.
It makes me smile every time.
And he was always amazing with his girl cousins.
Personally I think he likes them better. :)
The best part about girls is they can be tom boys.
I am sure Joe will have her...
hiking, fishing, hunting, learning about nature, playing ball with her and so on.
And when he holds her for the first time it will be love.
I am POSITIVE she will have him wrapped around her finger in no time.
THE BABY
I think I am finally feeling la petite bebe.
Which is very exciting.
And from the last two ultrasounds this bebe is everywhere!
The tech yesterday also made a comment about how active she it.
I love it.
Here are some photos from yesterdays ultrasound.
THE BELLY SHOTS
So not cute.
I feel like a fatty.
DO NOT WISH FOR BOOBS!
They are OVERRATED!
And they make you look fatter!
Hollywood has ruined normal sized girls.
Take it from me.
I am a professional in the boob department!

However, I love this picture...
I think it is much more flattering and cutter than the other shots!
THE HALLOWEEN COSTUMES
THE JOKER
Joe was the Joker.
I think he looked great!
He did all the makeup by himself.
And we were late for our party.
But it was AWESOME!
What do you think?
THE CAT
I was a fat cat... LOL
Seriously I was a black cat.
Very original since that is Joe's nickname for me... CAT!
THE SHORT LOCKS
Here is a better shot of my short hairs.
THE WEEKS
17 weeks, 2 days today (11/4/08)
THE UPCOMING APPOINTMENTS
I get to meet Dr Boylan on November 18th
And I am sure I will have a 20week ultrasound.
They were not able to see a few things on this one that they have to have.
Plus they still are monitoring my cyst
And I will have more info on that at this appointment.

Congratulations on the girl!!! Be happy, there is plenty of time to try again for a boy. :)
